Joshua Kingsley.

I can't believe Caleb right now he invited her to sit at our table. Our fucking table! What the fuck was he thinking clearly he wasn't. He was thinking with his dick and I was going to put an end to it. I can't believe all my friends were all over her like a fucking rash, I thought she'd hate them knowing they were my friends, but no.

She was getting on with them, laughing and joking with them. God I hate her fucking face so much right now. I hoped what she said this morning about hating my friends was true, but it seems not I'll have to make sure she understand that they are my friends and not hers and to stay the fuck away.

Her and Caleb never left one another's presence and I was seething. Wait until I get home Hope Evans you are going to regret the day you came into this world. You are going to regret the day you ever crossed me and that's a promise!

I banged the door closed behind me. I was seething she was dead so fucking dead. I stormed up to her room. I knew she'd be there. Caleb had told me she'd left already, wise choice bitch

I barged into her room and she looked at me angrily. "Ever heard of knocking?"

"Stay away from my friends?"

"Why?"

"Stay away."

"Why? Cause they prefer me to you?"

God this bitch was fucking me off. I'd had enough, my anger had finally reached its limit. I stormed over to her bed grabbing her hair in my fist dragging her off the bed.

"Let go of me Josh, you're hurting me."

"I'll do more than hurt you bitch."

"Let go of me, asshole!"

I let go of her hair and she fell, my foot connected with her face. "I warned you bitch, stay away from my friends or things will just get worse for you, not better."

"Fuck you!" She shouted.

This bitch was testing my patients.

I grabbed her hair, yanking it back forcing her to look at me, her nose looked bust and was bleeding, her lip was bust and swollen. "Look, bitch find your own fucking friends and stay away from mine capeche?"

"Go to hell."

I was beyond pissed why was this fucking bitch not listening? I clenched my fist and aimed and let go her head snapped as my fist connected with it I punched her over and over again.

When I was finally satisfied, I let go of her hair. "Tell my friends you no longer want to be friends with them, if you want this to stop." I said Kicking her in the ribs a few times before slamming the door behind me.

Hope Evans

What the fuck?! How the hell am I supposed to facetime my friends now? I asked myself as I stared into the mirror god he'd done a good fucking job on me my face was black an blue with a busted nose and lip fuck it hurt, my ribs hurt even more.

Now I had to leave it a few days to call them until they faded. I couldn't tell them my so-called step brother hated me and he'd kicked ten colours of shit out of me cause I spoke to his friends, by tomorrow they wouldn't want to talk to me anyway I'm sure of it, if Joshua prick had anything to do with it.

I sent a quick message to Caleb as we exchanged numbers. He was nothing like Josh. I should never have judged, but I had that was my mistake now I had to tell him to stay away from me so I could survive my final year at this fucking school.

"Hi Caleb, it's Hope. Sorry we can no longer be friends."

"Why?"

"We just can't, I'm sorry Caleb."

"I don't buy that for a second. What happened, Hope?"

"Nothing I just can't be your friend you're better off without me goodbye."

A tear slipped down my face before everything went dark.

Caleb Harper

I knew something was wrong when she texted me telling me we could no longer be friends, that asshole best friend of mine has some explaining to do.

I marched over to his house banging on the door loudly.

"Caleb what a surprise."

"Dont Caleb me, what the fuck did you tell her Josh?"

"Not much."

"Not much?" I asked my anger growing. "She doesn't want to be friends anymore."

"Good."

"What?"

"You're my friend Caleb."

"And I can be hers too."

"Not in this lifetime."

"What the fuck is wrong with you Josh?"

"She's not taking my friends away from me, her mother has already taken my father away from the gold digging bitch."

"What I've been told it's far from that, maybe you should ask instead of being on the defensive all of the time."

"Never."

"Where is she?"

"Where I left her, in her room."

"What the hell did you do Josh?"

"Nought."

"If I find out if you're lying."

"I'm not scared of you Caleb."

I ran past him up the stairs. I opened the door to her room and she was lying unconscious.

'shit shit shit.' "What the hell?"

I ran in, kneeling down in front of her, checking her pulse. It was faint . 'shit .' I dialled for an ambulance. God please be okay.

When the ambulance arrived there she checked her over and asked a few questions. How could I tell them it was her step brother that had done this to her ?!

I cut my eyes at Josh disgusted how the hell was he going to explain this to his father, to her mother?

I followed the paramedics to the ambulance, getting in holding her hand. "Please be okay, Hope." I said, kissing her knuckles.

I hate Josh right now.

Caleb

Hope had fully recovered from Joshua's beating, but she was not at home Caleb had told her parents she was staying with him he hadn't gone into detail but she was staying there until she had recovered.

He looked at her and smiled he really liked this girl they'd spent the last month talking, laughing and finding out about each other. He hoped she would be his girlfriend though it could be difficult with Josh being his best friend, but that wasn't going to stop him. No fucking way, he needed to protect this girl the best he could from Josh he was so hateful toward her and he had no idea why she was perfect though she was bigger built than the girls he usually went for she was extremely pretty and had all the curves in all of the right places.

Today was the day he was regretting taking her home after school he feared what Josh would do to her once he left her.

He hoped he'd calmed down since she was last there but only time would tell.

"Come on angel we have to go school then back to yours."

"Okay." She said, as her face fell we all knew she didn't want to return. I placed my hand on her chin lifting her face my eyes connected with hers. "I know you don't want to go back, but the doc gave you the all clear and your mom wants you home."

"I know." She sighed defeated.

"Besides you can't stay here forever."I cracked half smiling.

"I wish."

My smile grew wider. "Me to angel, me too but my mom thinks there is more to it than meets the eye."

"And is there?"

I leaned closer to her. "I hope there will be.'

She looked lost on my eyes they were slowly sparkling like they had done the first day that I had met her. God I wanted her so bad even in these circumstances.

'I need to ask you something angel you can say no I won't be offended."

"Okay." She sighed again.

"I want more with you a lot more. What I'm trying to say is will you be my girlfriend?"

I looked into her eyes they held many emotions ones I couldn't decipher apart from she was unsure and afraid.

'I don't know Caleb I really like you."

"I feel a but coming on."

"I'm scared Caleb you're Josh's friend and he hates me. Hell I'm not even supposed to be anywhere near you or any of his friends for that matter."

"He'll get over it."

"I don't think he ever will."

"How's about this I promise to try and keep you safe from him okay."

"Okay."

"So you'll be my girl?"

She smiled and nodded.

I crashed my lips on hers kissing hungrily.I moved away. "Come on, let's get to school."

She nodded. I took her hand in mine and we stepped out of the house I close the door and we were on our way to school. To be honest I was going to miss her being around we were like two peas in a pod and if I were Josh I'd be glad to have her as my sister.
